"Part A of the study analyses – through 27 country fiches – the extent to which
each EU Member State is prepared for ensuring a socially fair digital
transformation in the coming years, based on both its current situation and
future prospects. In this analysis, key areas of focus include the labour market,
digital skills of the population, social protection as well as cross-cutting
dimensions, such as the digitalization level of businesses and the quality of
digital infrastructures.
Part B of the study reviews – through 30 case studies – some of the main actual
and potential uses of digital technologies (including AI) by a country's public
sector for improving the design and the delivery of social benefits and active
labour market policies, as well as for complementing the monitoring of poverty
and income inequality (the case studies analysed are mainly in Member States
but also in a few third countries)."
